Join popular countryman Jack Hargreaves, as he embarks on a series of delightful expeditions through the English countryside.

13. Bee-Skips / Pheasant Shooting
In the old days poorer countrymen used to make most things for themselves -including beehives made from straw and blackberry brambles. In October the well-to-do gather for pheasant shooting.
14. Tidal Mill / Ice FishingBefore the days of steam, all the power available to British industry came from water mills. An old tidal mill from the Viking days has been restored.
